Donald Trump wants Greenland. Greenland is not for sale. Donald Trump threatens military action to capture Greenland. Greenlanders don’t want to be taken over by America.
Greenland belongs to Denmark. Denmark is a member of NATO. So is America. Per NATO treaty, America must protect Greenland against invasion. If America invades Greenland, it would be a violation of our NATO treaty obligations.
Invasion of another nation’s territory to capture land is a war crime. Trump would be a war criminal if he invades Greenland.
NATO will defend Greenland. We may very well wind up in a war with NATO if Trump invades Greenland. This will be bad for everybody except Russia.
There is really no need to discuss the matter further. We mustn’t let Donald Trump violate our NATO treaty. We mustn’t let Donald Trump use the American military to commit a war crime.
Anyone who favors annexing Greenland by force, state a good reason why going to war against Greenland would be lawful. State a good reason why going to war against Greenland would be moral.
I don't want to hear how much money we will make by forcefully annexing Greenland and taking their rare earths. I don't want to hear how badly I am infected with Trump Derangement Syndrome. I want to hear a rational, courteous explanation why such an insane maneuver would be both lawful and moral.
